In this fascinating collection, Auke Jelsma explores the byways and
outer reaches of the Reformation: groups and individuals who, in an
age of confessional strife, eschewed the certainties of the
established churches and sought religious truth in unconventional
ways and across confessional boundaries. The author, one of the
most distinguished Dutch Church historians of his generation, casts
a humane and sympathetic light on forms of belief that in their own
day attracted censure from the orthodox of both sides, and have
been little considered in subsequent general treatments of the
Reformation. Subjects include the Congregation of Windesheim and
its influence on Protestantism; the role of women in the Anabaptist
kingdom of MA1/4nster; the Devil in Protestantism; the Protestant
attack on popular culture; marriage and the family; the
sixteenth-century reception of St John of the Cross and Protestant
spirituality.
